WoD 6.2.3 Alliance Portal Map

You'd be amazed all the places you can go without flightpoints!This guide aims to help Alliance players find the most efficient route to their destination.While this guide IS aimed at Alliance players, the Horde portal map should be very similar.

Symbol Key

Solid arrows indicate a portal or teleportation directly to the location. (Portals that are within city limits are still indicated by a solid arrow, even if they are not in the same building.)

Single dashed arrows indicate some walking is required, but within the same region. (For capital cities, this includes the region they are within. E.g., Stormwind's region is Elwynn Forest.)

Double dashed arrows indicates some extended travel time. A flying mount or a flight master may be desirable.

A question mark indicates that the portals in question are not available until some objective is completed, typically a quest or achievement.

An asterisk indicates that there is something abnormal about the path in question. Please refer to explanations found under the images.

Orange circles indicate nothing and are simply placeholders because I was too lazy to make icons for every location, or due to size restraints.

Quick And Simple: Getting to Stormwind From Any Alliance Capital City

Notes:

The portals to Hellfire Peninsula require you to be level 58 or higher to enter them.

The flight path from Ironforge to Quel'Danas is shorter compared to the flightpath from Stormwind to Quel'Danas, thanks to an invisible portal outside of Ironforge's gates. It is not advisable to take the flightpath to Quel'Danas from anywhere BUT Ironforge. However, the flightpath back does not benefit from the same shortcut.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to Getting Around Azeroth

*: It is possible to fly from the Western edge of Dun Morogh to the Eastern edge of Vashj'ir with Master Riding. Making the journey with Artisan Riding may also be possible, but would be a close call.Notes:

While there is also a boat between Darnassus and the Exodar, the portal is faster and thus more preferred.

Unlike the ability to fly between Vashj'ir and Dun Morogh, it is not possible to fly between Gilneas and Tol Barad, due to an invisible wall.

The Dark Portal will only teleport you to Stormshield after you have constructed your Garrison, elsewise it will teleport you to the intro area. Bugs are rumored to exist when faction changing that cause the Dark Portal to teleport people to the intro area again.

The portals to the Cataclysm zones each require a different amount of quests:

In Closing

Thanks for taking the time to read and/or use this map!This was a resource that I felt was well-needed, especially for those new to the game, since there's a lot of locations!

Currently, I strongly suggest (as will most players) that people set their hearthstone's location to Shrine of the Seven Stars because of the vast utility it provides.Low level players can get a leg up by asking in trade chat or general chat for a port to S7S, there's almost always a Mage nice enough to help you out for free.

For the time being, I am not covering items with teleport abilities other than hearthstones, such as certain tabards.Some time in the future I may add a section to the guide on them (if there's not already a guide for them).

If you feel I've included incorrect information, or left out a noteworthy portal, please leave me some polite feedback, and I'll look into it!

Thanks,

This was a terrible oversight and it has been fixed.02/16/2016: The addition of a portal route between Stormshield and Exodar was an oversight, and has been removed. Additionally, there is a portal to Stormshield in Stormwind Keep that I was not aware of. It has been added to the map. (Thanks to Aeliasson)05/05/2016: The unexpected popularity of this map, and my constant strive for perfection, have lead me to decide that this map isn't good enough. Expect a more comprehensive, visually pleasing map within the following month.06/25/2016: Fixed a broken icon

NIce guide you have here, but it seems you might not be aware that there is also a portal to Stormshield inside Stormwind Keep. Also I am not sure there is a portal to Exodar in Stormshield.

Thanks for the this, it's a great guide for players who don't know what is available or who have not played a particular zone recently and are not up to date with changes.

Couple of thoughts;

1. I could only find a portal to Hellfire Peninsula from Stormwind - not Blasted Lands.

I was trying to do the quest Gaining Mirrens Trust and I needed to get back to the Blasted Lands to get the Nethergarde Bitter from Nethergarde Keep. I couldn't get back through the portal to the Blasted Lands (I know I've done that in the past) so I took the portal to Stormwind - planning to take the portal to the Blasted Lands (I'm pretty sure there is one in the Cleft of Shadow in Orgrimmar). But I could only find a portal to Hellfire Peninsula from Stormwind, which is the wrong side of the Dark Portal. I think these portals all changed with a previous expansion? So I flew back to the Blasted Lands instead - but I'm pretty sure I missed an easier way.

2. Improvement suggestion

Your portal map is an excellent quick reference guide. It would be even more useful if you could add an exact location for the portals in Stormwind (I had to run around looking for the portal I needed) and give any usage requirements; e.g. Character level or which quest is required to open the portal.
